65de61ba0d test: add compliance output tests for output() (#54217)
Adds compliance output tests for `output()` to verify that
we are emitting proper full compilation output, as well as proper
partial compilation output that can be linked to match the full output.

96bcf4fb12 fix(compiler-cli): forbid custom/duplicate decorator when option forbidOrphanComponents is set (#54139)
The deps tracker which is responsible to track orphan components does not work for classes mutated by custom decorator. Some work needed to make this happen (tracked in b/320536434). As a result, with option `forbidOrphanComponents` being true the deps tracker will falsely report any component as orphan if it or its NgModule have custom/duplicate decorators. So it is unsafe to use this option in the presence of custom/duplicate decorator and we disable it until it is made compatible. Note that applying custom/duplicate decorators to `@Injectable` classes is ok since these classes never make it into the deps tracker. So we excempt them.

a592904c69 fix(compiler-cli): allow custom/duplicate decorators for @Injectable classes in local compilation mode (#54139)
Custom/duplicate decorators break the deps tracker in local mode. But deps tracker only deals with non-injectable classes. So applying custom/duplicate decorators to `@Injectable` only classes does not disturb deps tracker and local compilation in general. There are also ~ 100 such cases in g3 which cannot be cleaned up.

4b1d948b36 fix(compiler-cli): consider the case of duplicate Angular decorators in local compilation diagnostics (#54139)
For cases like this:

```
@Component({...})
@Component({...})
export class SomeComp {
}
```

The `DecoratorHandler.detect` apparantly matches only one of the `@Component` decorator, leaving the other undetected which will be transformed by TS decorator helper and that breaks local compilation runtimes. But the error message only mentioned "custom" decorator, while in this case it is a "duplicate Angular" decorator. The respective error message is updated thus.

Instead of maintaining individual transforms for `input`, `output`,
`model` etc. we are grouping them directly and the first one matching,

This reduces needed traversal through AST and also makes it a little

cbe6e1ffcf refactor(compiler): allow some invalid expressions in two-way bindings that previously worked by accident (#54154)
In one of the earlier commits, the logic that appends `=$event` before parsing two-way bindings was removed and some validation was added to prevent unassignable expressions from being used. This ended up being problematic, because previously the parser was incorrectly allowing some invalid expressions which users came to depend on. For example, it transformed `[(value)]="a && a.b"` to `a && (a.b = $event)`.

These changes add some special cases for the common breakages that came up during the TGP.

7e861c640e feat(compiler-cli): generate extra imports for component local dependencies in local mode (#53543)
With option `generateExtraImportsInLocalMode` set, in local mode the compiler generates extra imports for each component local dependencies. Here local dependencies means all component's dependencies within the same compilation unit.

To achieve this, the compiler performs a "local version" of its regular static analysis to find each component's deps, and these deps are used to generate extra side effect imports.

3263df23f2 feat(compiler-cli): generate global imports in local compilation mode (#53543)
With option `generateExtraImportsInLocalMode` set in local compilation mode, the compiler generates extra side effect imports using this rule: any external module from which an identifier is imported into an NgModule will be added as side effect import to every file in the compilation unit. To illustrate this better assume the compilation unit has source files `a.ts` and `b.ts`, and:

```
// a.ts
import {SomeExternalStuff} from 'path/to/some_where';
import {SomeExternalStuff2} from 'path/to/some_where2';

...

@NgModule({imports: [SomeExternalStuff]})

```

then the extra import `import "path/to/some_where"` will be added to both `a.js` and `b.js`. Note that this is not the case for `import "path/to/some_where2"` though, since the symbol `SomeExternalStuff2` is not imported into any NgModule.

The math behind this mechanism is, in local compilation mode we cannot resolve component external dependencies fully. For example if a component in `a.ts` uses an external component defined in an external file `some_external_comp.ts` then we can generate the import to this file in `a.js`. Instead, we want to generate an import to a file that "gurantees" that `a.js` is placed after `some_external_comp.js` in the bundle. Now since the component in  `some_external_comp.ts` is used in `a.ts`, then there must be a chain of imports starting from the NgModule that declares the component in `a.ts` to the component in `some_external_comp.ts`. This chain means some file in the same compilation unit as `a.ts` should import some external NgModule which includes `some_external_comp.ts` in its transitive closure and import it to some NgModule. So by adding this import to `a.js` we ensure that the bundling will have the right order.

b78042f3a5 refactor(core): separate InputSignal and InputSignalWithTransform (#54053)
This commit separates `InputSignal` for input signals with transforms.
The reason being that most of the time, signal inputs are not using
transforms and the generics are rather confusing.

Especially for users with inferred types displayed in their IDEs, the
input signal types are seemingly complex, even if no transform is used.

For this reason, we are introducing a new type called
`InputSignalWithTransform`. This type will be used for inputs with
transforms, while non-transform inputs just use `InputSignal`.

A notable fact is that `InputSignal` extends `InputSignalWithTransform`,
with the "identity transform". i.e. there is no transform. This allows
us to share the code for input signals. In practice, we don't expect
users to pass around `InputSignal`'s anyway.

35ee10e357 refactor(compiler-cli): support generation of signal-based queries (#53978)
This commit introduces the compiler output generation for signal-based
queries. Signal-based queries will have new creation-mode instructions
and update instructions to advance the current query indices in the
global shared context.

An output like the following is the expected output for signal-based
queries:

```
i0.ɵɵdefineComponent({
  viewQuery: function App_Query(rf, ctx) {
      if (rf & 1) {
          i0.ɵɵviewQuery(ctx.d, _c0, 5);
          i0.ɵɵviewQuerySignal(ctx.ds1, _c0, 5);
          i0.ɵɵviewQuerySignal(ctx.ds2, _c0, 5);
      }
      if (rf & 2) {
          let _t;
          // only change-detected queries need explicit refresh
          i0.ɵɵqueryRefresh(_t = i0.ɵɵloadQuery()) && (ctx.d = _t.first);
          // we bump up current query index by 2 positions since there are 2 signal-based queries
          i0.ɵɵqueryAdvance(2);
      }
      …
  },
  …
});

```

Note: For now, the collapsing of multiple advance instructions is not
implemented. This will be a follow-up.

Note 2: A couple of query helpers are now in their own file. This makes
it easier to focus on query-specific compiler code. The new function is
called `createQueryCreateCall`, which is a modified variant of the
existing function that previously only generated query parameters.

b774e22d8e feat(compiler-cli): make it configurable to generate alias reexports (#53937)
At the moment when unified host is selected (through option `_useHostForImportGeneration`) the compiler always generates alias reexports. Such reexports are mainly generated to satisfy strict dependency condition for generated files. Such condition is no longer the case for G3. At the same time, these alias reexports make it impossible to mix locally compiled targets with globally compiled targets. More precisely, a globally compiled target may not be able to consume a locally compiled target as its dependency since the former may import from the alias reexports which do not exist in the latter due to local compilation mode. So, to make global-local compilation interop possible, it is required to be able to turn off alias reexport generation.

760b1f3d0b fix(compiler-cli): do not throw fatal error if extended type check fails (#53896)
Currently when the extended type check fails due to an import reference
that cannot be generated, the fatal diagnostic is not caught and
not properly exposed as a `ts.Diagnostic` that can be gracefully
handled. This is inconsistent to non-extended type checking diagnostics.

This is problematic because Angular CLI applications currently fail in
obscure ways because:

- the CLI does not expect `getDiagnosticsForFile` to actually throw
  runtime errors.
- the CLI does not seem to properly print these errors given the
  parallel workers and build excection, and those errors are
  especially hard to debug because there is no `stack` for
  `FatalDiagnosticError`'s.

Example: `MyDir` is not exported and the type check block cannot reference it.

transforms without reliance on the flag, resulting in less complexity in

because there would be no need to capture the "hasTransform" state in
the decorator so that JIT can generate the according input flags.

`isSignal` will still persist as an input flag to allow for monomorphic

signal based or not. JIT transform will also need to propagate this

1d95a832e3 refactor(core): detect signal inputs at runtime using input flags (#53571)
This commit introduces a new enum for capturing additional metadata
about inputs. Called `InputFlags`. These will be built up at compile
time and then propagated into the runtime logic, in a way that does
not require additional lookup dictionaries data structures, or
additional memory allocations for "common inputs" that do not have any flags.

The flags will incorporate information on whether an input is signal
based. This can then be used to avoid megamorphic accesses when such
input is set- as we'd not need to check the input field value. This also
avoids cases where an input signal may be used as initial value for an
input (as we'd not incorrectly detect the input as a signal input then).

The new metadata emit will be useful for incorporating additional
metadata for inputs, such as whether they are required etc (although
required inputs are a build-time only construct right now- but this is a
good illustration of why input flags can be useful). An alternative
could have been to have an additional boolean entry for signal inputs,
but allocating a number with more flexible input flags seems more future
proof and more reasonable andreadable.

ec661a3f0b refactor(compiler): Fix ambiguous repeater context variables in template pipeline (#53662)
In #52931, Kristiyan fixed a TemplateDefinitionBuilder bug in which derived alias variables in for loops (`$even`, `$first`, etc) were referring to the wrong level of nested `@for` block. (These variables are unique because they become inlined expressions, and are not "real" context variables.) He fixed this by appending level information to the generated alias name.

Template Pipeline actually suffered from the same bug. We fix it in a very similar way -- in particular, whenever these derived context variables are used, we make them depend on versions of `$index` and `$count` that have been suffixed with the xref of the enclosing repeater.

I have added a few more pipeline goldens, because we are not quite as clever as TDB about only generating the duplicate suffixed index and count variables when inside nested loops. This is fine, since in the long run, we want to refactor it more fundamentally.

I have also added a TODO to fix this more rigorously. In particular, it would be nice if we had proper support for shadowed variables, as well as unlimited levels of variables depending on one another.

Currently compiling input transform in local mode breaks, since compiler does static analysis for the transform function, and this cannot be done in local mode if the function is imported from another compilation unit. In this fix the static analysis is ditched in local mode.

330242595e refactor(compiler): Fix handling of namespaced attributes (#53646)
It's possible for attributes to have a namespace, we need to handle this
possiblity for both attribute instructions and attributes extracted to
the consts array.

1731988e72 refactor(compiler): Add a test for attribute namespaces (#53646)
We currently do not support the `namespace` argument for the attribute instruction. (Who knew it even existed!)

e5f02052cb fix(compiler): ignore empty switch blocks (#53776)
Adds some code to the compiler so that it ignores empty `@switch` blocks instead of trying to generate code for them.

Fixes #53773.

cc74ebfdf6 refactor(compiler): Rework how ICU placeholders are handled (#53643)
The way we were handling ICU placeholders was not compatible with using
interpolations on attributes of elements inside the ICU. This change
refactors the handling of ICU placeholders and unifies the way
expression and tag placeholders work inside ICUs.

The new approach modifies the ingest logic to add the placeholder on to
the TextOp rather than the TextInterpolationOp. This is because, in
ICUs, we may need multiple i18n expressions created from the
interpolation expressions to roll up into the same placeholder. ICUs
essentially do the interpolation at compile time, combining the static
strings with special placeholder strings that represent the expression
values.

cafc3b0081 refactor(compiler): Drop the explicit this. in most explicit receivers (#53594)
Consider a case when an explicit `this` read is inside a template with a context that also provides the variable name being read:

```
<ng-template let-a>{{this.a}}</ng-template>
```

Clearly, `this.a` should refer to the class property `a`. However, in today's Angular, `this.a` will refer to `let-a` on the template context.

Amazingly, both TemplateDefinitionBuilder and the Typecheck block have the same bug, and are consistent with each other! This is because `ImplicitReceiver` extends `ThisReceiver` in the parser AST, which is an insane gotcha.

In this commit, I patch the template pipeline to emulate this behavior as well.

To actually fix this nastiness, we have to:
- Update `ingest.ts` in the Template Pipeline (see the corresponding comment)
- Check `type_check_block.ts` in the Typecheck block code (see the corresponding comment)
- Turn off legacy TemplateDefinitionBuilder
- Fix g3, and release in a major version
